I personally would keep driving with it as it is.
If a copper approached me, I would personally ask him why he doesn't better utilise his time stopping all those winkers who drive whilst on their mobiles. It beggars belief.
As an ex scuffer, I am pretty certain I would have warmly welcomed an approach like that, as an invitation to do a comprehensive, and time consuming, vehicle and document check. As a general rule, said scuffers don't appreciate a smart a55 and I am sure they would happily stop and book drivers using their phone but at that moment, at that place, it's you committing an offence. With personal number plates we all play a 'game' be it altering size, spacing or font, I know I do. If I get pulled, so be it and they get one up. If I dont get stopped, I get one up. It's the same with speeding; if you don't want to get caught for speeding, don't speed.
I'm sure they wouldn't like it, and obviously it's not in my best interests. But someone has to ask why they are spending/wasting their time chasing up people like Matt.

There is total planetary imbalance in effect. Ian has installed 3200 parts and has changed overnight. Soon you'll be buying only French products mate!
No chance! I'm playing devils advocate because I think it's Bollox as well. The problem is, it's not what we think, it's what the scuffer thinks that matters. Ba5tards, the lot of them (the french, not the police!).
Sergeant: Savage, why do you keep arresting this man?
Constable Savage: He's a villain, sir.
Sergeant: ...A villain.
Constable Savage: And a jailbird, sir.
Sergeant: I know he's a jailbird, Savage, he's down in the cells now! We're holding him on a charge of being caught in possession of an illegal number plate
